Píseň: Falling In Love

Interpret:
Sam Cooke
Album:
Ain't That Good News
I'm falling in love with someone
 who's not falling in love with me
 How can I escape this future
 that holds nothing for me
 I'm giving my all to someone
 Who's not giving her own to me
 Is she only knew what she's doing to me
 She would set my poor heart free
 I knew there've been many before me
 Who've had an one-sided love
 But goodness knows a poor boy like me
 Needs some help from above
 Lord, I'm falling in love with someone
 who's not falling in love with me
 If she'd only cared the very least
 I'd be as happy as a boy can be
 Lord, I'd be as happy as a boy can be
